WinAMP SSRC Reampler and Kx 3538i

RejZoR · Sep 27, 2005, 09:32 PM

I noticed something weird. If i use SSRC resampler in WinAMP to resample all audio to 16bit/48kHz (i have SB Live!) and i want to use 3DSE effects, they don't work at all. No effect from disabled and up to High).
If i use regular WinAMP DirectSound output 3DSE works as it suppose to work.
Is this normal or not?

Not sure, most guys would tell you not to use that though, if you want more spatial effect in your audio try using Reverb...sorry didn't really answer your question

Great and now 3DSE doesn't work at all. Resetting device and global settings doesn't fix anything. WTF is going on!?

what happens if you reset the DSP to default setup? maybe the 3DSE will only work if certain modules are loaded iwhtin the DSP, I am just guessing here though. Why R u so worried about 3DSE? your like me and don't like anything NOT working..I don't think it sounds very good most people will tell you to leave it alone..

Yeah i like everything working, plus i actually like 3DSE. Adds that nice fidelity to sounds. I'm in heavens when i hear sound of ejected AK-47/P90 shell in CS:S with 3DSE set to Normal or Highhttp://www.hardwareheaven.com/images/s...big%20grin.gif

hmm, so you like to use it in games? I'll have to try that. I was cationed away from using it as it makes things sound bad..to each their won I guess. I will try that tip though, I have to get CS:S, Haven't played it yet, I still like SOFII, old school huh?

Yeah high frequency sounds are greatly improved, but there might be distortions from time to time at low frequency sounds (usually only last detonation of terrorists package at bomb site). Grenades don't cause any problems with sound.

3DSE? that's the spatial effect applied to the AC97 inputs - i don't think you can use that on the outputs

RejZoR · Sep 29, 2005, 10:14 AM

Oh i'm sure i can coz i am using it all the time (great difefrence for music and games). But now it's just dead. Nothing (and i reset all settings several times,rebooted machine...). WTF!?
Guess i'll really have to reinstall drivers again...

Uninstalled,cleaned with DCPro,reinstalled. Same. All the sudden 3DSE doesn't work anymore no matter what i do. I don't understand why it died all the sudden when it was working just fine all the time before.

EDIT:
Changed output device from 4/5 to 0/1 (in WInAMP) and now 3DSE works again. Still don't get it why it died on 4/5 device
